A biosafety level-3 laboratory facility is designed for research with hazardous biological agents. These biological agents have a potential for respiratory transmission and may cause serious health effects. The 704 facility contains six individual labs with biosafety cabinets, incubators, and refrigerators. The facility also includes a warm room, cold room, confocal microscope system, a chemical fume hood, -80 freezer, hi-speed centrifuge, ultra-speed centrifuge, and pass through autoclave. Both supply and exhaust air are filtered. There is a dedicated emergency generator for the facility.

This is a restricted access facility with assigned door codes and video cameras at the entrance and exit. 704 exceeds the CDC/NIH guidelines for this level of laboratory facility.
